Day 62 and 63 Recap

One of the tasks I had given my self on my 90 day challenge was to take a picture of my upper body every single day so that I could monitor the progress of my phsyique as I implemented the new super-healthy lifestyle.

Well, on Saturday, my wife and I were conducting a presentation and we ended up leaving the camera at the event. Thankfully, my cousin who was also at the event, happened to pick it up for us and take it home. The unfortunate part is that we will not be able to get the camera back for at least a few days, maybe even longer.

I have a cell phone camera that I will attempt to use but the quality of the photos is mediocre at best. The photo task was lower priority than the fitness and healthy meal component so I am not overly concerned.

From a fitness perspective, I had another back to back set of days of playing basketball. Saturday night I went out to my gym just before closing for a 30 minute run. I did a number of high intensity shooting drills and was really happy with how hard I pushed myself. I felt like I made some good improvements in my game.

Then tonight was week 2 of my Sunday night men's league. I have a new team this year with only 1 player remaining from the team I played with last year. I am actually quite happy with our roster and we work well together as a squad. He had a great 102-50 win over a team that normally plays much better than they did tonight. They just seemed to have an off night and we were fortunate enough to be making most of our shots. Peter, the newest player in the league and one of my new teammates, scored 50 points himself! I am quite happy that I recruited him to be on my team haha!

As for the eating component of the challenge, this is still an area I am working on improving. I did not always make the wisest decision with my food choices this weekend and I know that it is only a small act, but it still has long lasting repercussions in my own self confidence and personal accountability.

I know the solution is to design more of a system around my eating patterns. This will help me monitor my intake and keep on track with my overall goals. Tomorrow, I will examine what I eat nd begin to formulate an actual meal plan that I can follow. One that has some flexibility while still keeping me within a set limit of overall food quantity. I am confident this will be a huge step in the right direction!
